THE Opportunity
Making plans is often harder than making a match.
People have more ways than ever to meet others online, yet many conversations never make it beyond the screen.
Common barriers include:
Endless messaging slows momentum.
Planning a meetup takes effort.
Coordinating schedules isn't always easy.
Meeting someone for the first time can feel uncertain.
Even planned meetups often fall through.
